Just to close out this thread, I have committed a getpass() which Glenn
Burkhardt and I have been working on. It solves the problem of other
programs interfacing with nmh, such as exmh, as well as guaranteeing the
implementation of that function.
i have personally compiled and used it on linux (redhat 6.1 with
glibc2.1.2), solaris 8, netbsd 1.4.2, IRIX 6.5. it's main dependency is on
termios.h, so please tell me if this causes any problems.
as far as licenses, the code started out from the netBSD codebase, but I
really hacked on it a LOT to get it to do what i wanted. hopefully this
should be okay.
on a separate note, does anyone have objections to cleaning out
MACHINES? it really has a lot of useless crap, like the following:
*** No longer necessary ***
*** This test has been updated and should work now ***
if these are no longer issues, they should not be included in the file,
since it only serves to confuse users on non-issues.
